In the early 1980s, Springfield Remanufacturing Corporation (SRC) in Springfield, Missouri, was a  near bankrupt division of International Harvester.  That's when a green young manager, Jack Stack,  took over and turned it around. He didn't know how to  "manage" a company, but he did know about the  principal, of athletic competition and democracy:  keeping score, having fun, playing fair, providing  choice, and having a voice. With these principals  he created his own style of management --  open-book management. The key is to let everyone in on  financial decisions. At SRC, everyone learns how to  read a P&L -- even those without a high school  education know how much the toilet paper they use  cuts into profits. SRC people have a piece of the  action and a vote in company matters. Imagine  having a vote on your bonus and on what businesses the  company should be in. SRC restored the dignity of  economic freedom to its people. Stack's  "open-book management" is the key -- a system  which, as he describes it here, is literally  a game, and one so simple anyone can use  it. As part of the Currency paperback line, the  book includes a "User's Guide" -- an  introduction and discussion guide created for the  paperback by the author -- to help readers make  practical use of the book's ideas. Jack Stack is the  president and CEO of the Springfield Remanufacturing  Corporation, in Springfield, Missouri. The recipient  of the 1993 Business Enterprise Trust Award, Jack  speaks throughout the country on The  Great Game Of Business and Open  Book Management.

Re: The Great Game Of Business

Main feature Epistory - Typing Chronicles, that is, in fact, fast printing,
is also implemented interestingly and unusually. When you fight, light
the torches, activate the levers to open the doors and solve some
riddle, when you remove the various obstacles on the way and open the
chests - all these actions are carried out precisely by typing letters on
the keyboard. Which is indicated above each object / enemy. But words
can belong to different elements, and you still need to switch between
the types of magic (fire, ice, earth, air), again typing the corresponding
key words. Accordingly, in some locations you just do not get until you
learn the right magic.

Words are logical and thematic, and there are also not very - some,
apparently, are generated randomly. When you break into any mine in
the mine to gain additional experience, and type "hydromica" for this,
or when you write "anion / Tesla / network" sequentially to activate the
switch, it's all clear. But when an aggressive fly flies on you or a fat
caterpillar creeps over it, and combinations of the letters "Bajul /
member / shame" or "Yiddish / horseradish / liter" rise proudly above it,
you will agree, it becomes a little ridiculous. Or a lot.
